This paper examines the strategic leadership competencies of British General William Howe during the American Revolution (1775-1778).

Howe’s difficulty in transitioning from tactical, through operational to the strategic level provides a useful example as to the dramatically different challenges faced by current leaders as they prepare for and address similar challenges in our contemporary operational and strategic environment.
